He was a beloved husband, father, son, brother and dear friend to many, passed away at the age of 32 on October 6, 2015. He left behind a wife and three children that were 11, 9, & 5 years old at the time. Ayman was one of the first supporters of the Palestinian American Community Center. He would always sign his children up for our programs and he would be the first to attend our many PACC events.
